Welcome to Apartment 5G at 201 East 21st Street which presents a great opportunity to own a spacious and flexible home that can remain as an oversized alcove studio or easily be converted into a true 1-bedroom. Offering both comfort and versatility, this pin-drop quiet and sunny, east facing home is ideally located in the Quaker Ridge which is one of Gramercys most desirable buildings. The layout offers a generously sized living space with plenty of options for different living, dining and home office configurations. Currently designed as an alcove studio with a custom partition for the sleeping area, the space is enhanced by custom built-in cabinetry underneath the windows and can be seamlessly reimagined into a 1-bedroom layout if desired. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash and excellent cabinet space, while the renovated bathroom includes contemporary subway tile, modern fixtures and a glass enclosed shower. Oversized windows fill the apartment with natural light throughout the day adding warmth plus the generous closet space ensures there is never a lack of storage. The Quaker Ridge, a classic white brick post war co-op, is known for its excellent financials, low monthly maintenance and prime location just steps from Gramercy Park. Residents enjoy full-time doorman service, a live-in superintendent, laundry, bike storage and a residents only parking garage with direct access to the building. Quaker Ridge allows co-purchasing and pets but does not permit guarantors or pieds--terre.
